You missed my point.
Somebody said: NetBSD NFS and NetBSD VM system don't work together
right, because there's no unified buffer cache. That's the biggest
problem with the VM system.
I said: No, it's not, because NetBSD's VM system crashes when you run
out of RAM and swap. _That's_ the biggest problem, and it affects
_all_ environments in which NetBSD is run. The NFS problem doesn't
matter for some environments, because some just don't use NFS for
much, if anything.
